4 New York Club swell.

He is club man. and copies the exist
ence of the rich club swells OF London.
He has a suite OF apartments in an apart
ment house at 81 500 year, furnished a,
a cost of about s.. J.0O0-not half as costly
in appointments as those of some other
swells who ''go in for that sort of thing.
don't You know" He and ',his man, as
the swells call valet, occupy these
rooms. This man gets about $50 week
and has simple, though sometimes trying
duties. 1t is his business TO sit up for his
master ut night 10 assist him, or to pII
him to bed, according TO the swcll's con
dition. Whether the swell is blind drunk
or only just drunk, it is the duty of the
man to prepare a tepid bath, pull his
clothes off, put him in tho tub and wash
him, and then rub him with coarse towels
until his skin glows.
In the morning the fellow must hang
abOut till his master stirs-unless he has
had orders to awaken him at certain
hour-and then he must exercise him at
a certain hour. This also is q peculiar
operation. The man rubs the swell, slapS
him to spur the circulation Of his blood
pulls his limbs to timber his joints. and
then both put on boxing gloves and en-
gage in a lively and earnest fight. The
wires of a magnetic battery have been put
in the warm bath that is awaiting use
and the swell leaps into the tub and has
the electric current strengthened until his
skin tinges. He is then taken out, robed
in a pajama of Turkish towel cloth and
put on a lounge with the toweling under
him ready TO be massaged. which is to say
kneaded. slapped and pulled and rubbed
until he says his head feels quite il
natural size again. and then he thinks hc
can manage little toast and coffee anG
possibly soft boiled egg or two. His mar.
shaves him while he waits for his break

In the case OF attacking columns ad-
vancing on an enemy's earthworks, much
depends on the general in charge of the
attack, who in order to feel the pulse OF
the resistance effectively, should be sta
toned, in spite of the great personal risk,
midway between the extreme line of the
attack and the reserve. so rs to be able to
judge correctly the right moment in which
TO call for the reserves. In all attacks
there are the reckless. fearless men, who
will rush forward and get killed. Then
there are the men of moderate courage,
who will stand fire for considerable
time, but eventually waver if subjected to
considerable loss, and lastly, the faint
hearted men, who are ever ready to turn
their backs to :he enemy. The order to
bring the reserves into action, in the
opinion Of Gen Skobeleff, should be given
while the men Of moderate courage are
not dcmoralized, since 10 wait until they
wa~ered would probably mean utter

After Middle Life.

become more or less impaired. The safety
is in recognizing the fact and treating
them accordingly. 1t is wonderful how
the system often bears up under the par
tial disability Of an organ or part if
there is adaptation TO its weakness. and
come compensation therefor. In state Of
inability each organ tends TO give TO some
